Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter 143 Murder

Chapter [-] Murder

If you promise to do something for others, you have to do it.Anyway, now there is a stalemate, I don't care if I fight or not, the military bosses are twisted together, and the royal family is not easy to intervene, so it's a big joke for me to run to calm things down as a fool.

The current situation has been sublimated. The military's proposal has changed from a unilateral aggression to a noble movement to defend the country. It is patriotism, loyalty, and a knife and ax without frowning. In order to save the Chinese people who have been oppressed by the Turks for thousands of years, he devoted himself to the death without regret.And the anti-war faction headed by Du Feng was branded cowardly, unscrupulous, and even traitorous and traitorous.

Fortunately, it was only in the court, if these public opinions spread to the people, it would be over. Du Feng and others would not be painted as bad faces by later storytellers, and it would be strange to say that they were Turkic secret agents lurking in the court.Thinking that even a famous general like Su Dingfang with outstanding military exploits can give the cruel and ruthless 'Su Grand Master' the infamy, let alone Du Feng.

It's poor, although he has never had a good impression of Du Feng, but he still has insight.The darkness in the officialdom has existed since ancient times, and no matter how much society progresses, it will not disappear. No matter whether it is an honest or corrupt official, the possibility of staying out of the matter is extremely small. If you want to protect yourself, you have to join a certain group as a reliance, and become a member of the society from then on. We share weal and woe.

What is the conflict of interests between small groups, whether it is true patriotism or using patriotism as an excuse to do some unscrupulous things, I don't understand, and I don't want to understand.Small people, they live a small life, counting money, counting food, wives and children are hot on the kang, and there is no requirement for good food and clothing.Whoever gives me a good life is a good official. The better the people live, the better the official will be, and he will be praised.It has to be praised. As for whether there are cruel and merciless plots behind the official's back, such as murdering colleagues to kill people and spreading rumors, it is not included in the evaluation of the people's quality.This is also the reason why Wu Zetian has a good reputation among the people. She kills whoever she likes, as long as she doesn't rob my old sow.

Get up early, prepare a basket of fresh eggs, take a few bottles of Jiuhua Yulu, bring a few new cricket pots, and hit the road.Visit Mr. Cheng.The old man likes a lot, if I give money, he will definitely be happier, so just give him an intermediate level of happiness, it doesn't need to cost too much.

Cheng Chu was also there, and he was very happy to see me here, and Mr. Cheng was even more delighted, so he searched for gifts when he came up.Almost let the crickets in the jar go.

"It's still Zihao who knows how to be filial to the elderly. These unpopular children and grandchildren in the family are incomparable, and they are all for nothing." Mr. Cheng flipped through the cricket pot, but he didn't see the way for a long time, "It's done finely. It's for raising insects? "

"Yes, it's Chongchong. I'll show it to grandpa, kid." He took out the hand-made weasel beard and eyebrows from his bosom, gently removed the cover, and let the crickets see first.Familiarize yourself with the battlefield environment.Then they chose the home and away games. They came in a hurry and didn't bring a bucket, so they could only be wronged by one of them for the away game.The two crickets are about the same size and belong to the same weight class.

The main field is a 'Flower Top Lavender' birthday star head, with a flower top cover, thin, straight and dark silver threads, and clear sides.The Zihua three-tooth pliers rustle, with a wide back and long legs, not startled when encountering an enemy, as calm as a rock, with light trembling filaments, spreading its wings and singing Liwei, the sound is like a torrent of bells, it is a fairy among insects.For Confucianism.I got it by chance when I was walking in the garden with my second daughter.The away game is a rare 'crab green white hemp sickle tooth', which is very rare.Good insects are usually three-toothed pliers. This insect has four teeth with curved hooks, which are long and thick, sickle-shaped. When encountering an enemy, it will die without letting go. It also has thick legs and low teeth. It is like a shovel. , a god among worms, and Ying were attracted by its hoarse cry when inspecting the Zhuangzhong project, and captured it in one fell swoop.Cricket culture has not yet formed in this era, if the two worms are in later generations, ten thousand gold will be hard to find. Today, for the fun of Bo Cheng, he has spent enough capital.

In an instant, the two insects bite into a ball, or break, or push, or wrestle, or are provoked high, and they will meet a good material, and the battle will be fierce.The eyes of the three were all attracted, and they silently cheered for the side they were optimistic about. With the ups and downs of the battle, even the audience's breathing became heavy.

"Stop!" The old man yelled, and urgently said: "Zihao, hurry up and persuade the two sides to stop fighting. If the fight continues, you will either die or be injured. It's a pity for the brave general."

I was also heartbroken that my beloved generals were killing each other, and I changed the eyebrows to push the two fierce generals away, and changed the basin lightly, before I let out a sigh of relief. "Grandpa, how is it? Interesting?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Mr. Cheng pointed to the two jars of crickets, "For me?"

"Well," I nodded heavily, feeling reluctant in my heart, but I still have to do human favors, "It's specially given to grandpa for entertainment, a little trick, just for fun."

Old Master Cheng followed my example, carefully picked up the cricket pot, placed it in the flower bed in the courtyard, and sighed: "I can't think of a single insect with such a bloody nature. What a pity, if it is reborn as a human, it must be a fierce general. The gang The bastard is not even as good as a bug." Looking back at Cheng Chu, "How is the invitation?"

With a look of fear on Cheng Chu's face, he took a few steps back, opened up a little distance, and said cautiously: "I need you to invite Grandpa in person. If I say I'm worthless, let me go."

"Well, I'll kick you to death!" Mr. Cheng kicked Cheng Chu, and suddenly laughed a few times, "I'm not dead, one is more stubborn than the other, if I can't beat the old man, I will play this way, haha..." Turning to me, he said : "I'm going to invite an enemy, it's not far away, Zihao, please wait a little longer, he will be right back."

Seeing Old Master Cheng go out, he asked Cheng Chu: "Who is the old man inviting? Are you going in person?"

"Please, Mr. Su. Grandpa invited many old friends over for lunch today. He said that without Mr. Su, he would not be able to show off the show, so he had to invite him. I ran several times in a row and didn't see anyone. No, brother God He guarded the gate of the Su Mansion before the light was up, and finally met him, Grandpa Su called the little brother to 'get away' without saying a word, and when he came back, he ran into you." Cheng Chu sat on the flower pond with a dejected face, and complained : "A month ago, Mr. Su's family moved to the newly-given 'Linqing County Government' mansion next to it, and for some reason they offended my grandfather. The two fought three or four times, and my grandfather even used the mountain axe. , clamoring all day long to take the head of Old Su, and the two juniors are too embarrassed to interact with each other. This is good, and now they are talking about inviting him to dinner, isn't it embarrassing!"

"Ah! So hot?" The scene of the famous general in the past was missed. If I knew it would be nice to move a bench to Cheng's house to watch a play two days ago, "Today is the old man's treat. Then I won't stay any longer, let's be juniors." I don't have the right to speak, and it will be in the way if I stay. Say hello to the old man, I'll come and see him in two days." As he said, he cupped his hands and shouted hurriedly.Just kidding, who can Mr. Cheng invite to come, aren't they all old murderers, and have dinner with this group of people?I haven't been kicked in the head by a donkey.Escape is important.

Cheng Chu didn't stop him, he was considerate of my feelings, and cooperatingly sent me to the door, "Brother Zihao, walk slowly, I guess the family is uneasy these days..."

I nodded, Cheng Chu is worthy of being a good brother, remind me that I won't use it in two days, the Cheng family has a tendency to become a 'juyi hall'.Keep me away from right and wrong.

Just as he was about to get on his horse and flee for his life, there was a loud shout: "Don't go, boy of the Wang family!"

Oops, I almost fell off right away, it was scary, why not collect old furniture?It's so convenient to walk around the streets.Not even the loudspeaker.I turned my head and saw that it was amazing. The old man who sold my granddaughter to me galloped towards me and immediately mentioned it to me.Put it on the saddle bridge, "Sneaky and sneaky, you can't even meet the elders, so why run?"

"Old man, can you put it down for me? Your saddle is so high that your ribs are almost broken." Not to mention the discomfort of being on horseback, you are just outside the gate of Cheng's mansion. What are you doing to show off your might? ?How embarrassing to be seen by so many servants.What's more, it has already been seen.

The old man got off his horse, grabbed me off, and laughed loudly, "How many years, how many years have not captured the enemy alive, and your hands are raw. Boy, you are light and light, and the hand feels too bad. Go home and raise some fat to come out." Reduce the amount of food. We will eat more in the future."

"Yes, I must eat more. I must make it easy for you to mention it." I stood firm and straightened my crumpled clothes.What kind of person, a bully with a thick back and waist at an age, and thinks I'm thin, so I can take advantage of it when I get fat.This will be quite crooked again, and you have to shoot a shuttle at this old man. "Grandpa, I have something to do at home, I'm sorry, I'll take my leave first." If you don't run now, when will you wait.

"Come here." The old man grabbed me, "There's no reason to let me go when I'm here. After all, I'm serving in the army. Come in with me!" He didn't listen to my explanation, and slipped in by grabbing me by the collar like he was catching a chicken.

Cheng Chu stood outside the door and didn't dare to make a sound when he saw this scene. He just watched me being manipulated and was disrespectful.

"Brother Zihao, you probably won't be able to leave, so save yourself." Cheng Chu is now the door greeter, and bowed his hands to the old man kindly, "Grandpa Liang, please invite first. Grandpa will go to invite Mr. Su, and he will be there soon."

"Take care of him for me, run away and ask for your own business!" Pushing me to Cheng Chu, he strode in the door, as if his own home was the same.

"Brother Zihao, let's go," Cheng Chu saw the old man walking away, and deliberately released the water.

"I can't go anymore," Mr. Cheng came back alone in ragged clothes, with marks of beatings on his face. It seems that inviting people has changed to beating people, and Su Dingfang probably won't be much better.Cheng Chu didn't care much when he saw his grandfather like this, so he didn't think it was strange.

"Old Su is good at punching and kicking, I didn't even get it today, haha..." Mr. Cheng smiled happily, "He is not much stronger, I kicked him four or five times, if his son and students didn't stop him , You must be kicked to death by him on the spot. Old Liang is here? Zihao, follow me in, this Liang Jianfang is very fond of you."

Oh, remember this name, Liang Jianfang, okay, run away next time you hear it.After a while, even Li Ji arrived with a group of old guys, and the hall became lively instantly. I felt like I was in the middle of a group of godfathers, hiding and fearing.Lan Ling did me a terrible job. If I want to go back alive today, I have to fight Lan Ling.

The old men quarreled for a while, and Li Ji and Mr. Cheng led the discussion.It's nothing more than inciting the imperial court to fight the Turks. According to this meaning, even Li Ji is a main fighter.What they said is also true, if there is no war, how can the food and pay in the land increase the prestige of the military in the court? To maintain the morale and combat effectiveness of the army, you have to fight, and you have to fight non-stop.

Seeing this, I was beating drums in my heart. There were seven or eight people, either this general or that general. The old man who arrested me in the morning turned out to be General Zuo Wuwei, who mixed with these people and died soon.

"Zihao, tell me what you mean. Since you're sitting here, there's no reason to pretend to be dumb." Just as I was apprehensive, Li Jimeng came all of a sudden, and I felt a little nervous.

"The kid is here to study, I dare not show off in front of all the grandpas," I quickly stood up and made a circle around, "Hit, that's what grandpas say. Hit hard!" Life is the most important thing, in so many old people If the general puts forward the opposite opinion in front of the general, my two wives will have to be widowed.

"There must be a regulation for playing. Let's talk about how to play." Liang Jianfang patted the table dissatisfied. Well, it’s fine if you don’t fight, as long as you practice a few more times, you won’t be at a disadvantage.”

"Zihao and Mr. Li are fighting against each other, you two are from Tubo. You, Lao Liang, you two are Tuyuhun..." Mr. Cheng divided the forces, each of them played a peripheral force, and he became the coach of the Tang army without hesitation.Started to play the game of Datang attacking the Western Turks under the containment of many countries.

Although the Western Turks were in civil strife, their combat power was still strong. While attacking the Turks, they had to guard against surprise attacks by Tubo. The Anxi Governor's Mansion was stretched.It is difficult to complete the task with the power of one government.It is bound to send troops from all sides to help.

Li Ji's Tubo army and I took advantage of the weakness of the Tang army in Longyou, without the shackles of the Tang army on the right, pretended to attack in Jiannan, and marched northward to Tuyuhun with heavy troops.Tuyuhun lacked Tang troops to fight together.Dispersed by Tubo's condescending charge, relying on a few big cities on the plain to survive, while Mr. Cheng's Tang army was still fighting fiercely with the Turks.

"It's a bit late," Mr. Cheng casually threw the small flag on the sand table, "It's just a swap. Trading Tuyuhun for Western Turks has advantages and disadvantages."

"That's what I said, but I lost the barrier of Tuyuhun. I will increase the area bordering Tubo, and I will need a large number of troops to defend the Tubo people in the future. It is a little uneconomical." Liang Jianfang looked regretful, "If Tuyuhun can persist In half a year, our army captured the Western Turks, and we rushed back to help, and we might be able to wipe out the elite of Tubo on the plain."

"Impossible, there are gains and losses. This is the situation now." Li Ji glared at Mr. Cheng, dissatisfied: "Too anxious. Wealth and disaster are unpredictable. But the words have been let out. There is no reason to go back on your word. Don’t let your reputation down. Our army is disgraced. It’s a tough battle, so we can only go out with our lives. Old Cheng is good at this job. If you send troops, I will favor Lao Cheng.”

"If you can hold back the Tubo people..." Mr. Cheng patted his head and groped carefully on the sand table, "Back then Tuyuhun was injured by my dynasty. It would be difficult to stop the Tubo people head-on. Zihao, you just killed Nice, tell me what you think."

I have a fart idea, I'm exhausted from deducing with these old men, my brain is full of porridge, and those who have killed half their lives have no idea, so ask me what's the use. "I don't think so. To be honest, if it takes three years at night, there will be no need to change places. Once the imperial court subdues Nanzhao, so that Tubo can't take care of both ends, they can calmly send troops."

"Impossible, just don't fight for three years, there will be many variables in three years, who can predict?" Liang Jianfang looked dissatisfied.

"Maybe it's a way," Li Ji pointed to the vicinity of Shanzhou, "the prefectural soldiers in the pass have not yet been transferred back, once Tubo advances northward, they can give Tuyuhun a helping hand, but there is not enough troops, whether we can persist until the army returns to help is another matter. "

"Capable!" Mr. Cheng slammed his fist on the table, "Although the Guannei government soldiers are small in number, they are powerful and can be used. But mobilizing the Guannei army requires the cooperation of the military department. This little thief Du is very cunning, so he must find a way obstruct."

"It's a dangerous game. Once Lao Cheng is stranded in the west, Tuyuhun and the tens of thousands of Guanzhong disciples will be in danger. First add up the total, and then report when there is a chance of winning. The Ministry of War is also afraid of losing Tuyuhun's barrier. As long as Tuyuhun can be protected, he There is no reason to act." Li Ji frowned, and said cautiously: "The strategy of achieving both ends is not easy. Once the Guannei government soldiers join the battle, this treasure will be overwhelmed, and if we win, we will be guaranteed 30 years without Tubo. Harm, if you miss it, it is a trivial matter for you and me to lose face. Tens of thousands of children's lives are at stake, and you will bear a lifetime of infamy. The matter is of great importance, and the Holy One will also have concerns, how to get the support of the Holy One is the key."

They are all gamblers, taking tens of thousands of Guanzhong elites as bargaining chips for their own selfishness, I am a little uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.Since ancient times, fighting for reinforcements has been more difficult than attacking difficulties. The troops fighting for reinforcements are classic cannon fodder. Not to mention outnumbered, even if they win the final victory, there is not much left. Unfortunately, they will not even get a good name in the end.When celebrating the victory, who would have thought that a group of bloody men blocked the wolf-like enemy army with their stumps and broken arms. How many of them couldn't even make up their complete corpses, and fell asleep in the ground together with their names.

I took part in a massacre, a massacre in which there was no distinction between friend and foe.Those simple peasant households in Zhuangzi were the army that I sent them there with my own hands. Parents, wives and children were still waiting for their triumphant return, but I watched them comfortably in the rear as they were put on the sand table and removed again and again. Every time I took down a small flag, my heart contracted violently. It was thousands of lives, thousands of Guanzhong children including Qin Yu.

I don't know how I got home, my mind was a little lacking, I couldn't think of anything, and I didn't want to think about anything.I felt like something was missing, empty.Unpleasant day, maybe sleep will be better, not sure, but it's good to try.Not speaking, ignoring the anxious Ying and the second daughter, they shrank to the corner of the kang alone, quietly and motionless.
